Giving
Giving is
worship.
Everything we have is a gift from God's open hand. When we give, we are not paying a bill or earning his favor — we are worshiping, returning to him a glad portion of what was always his. There is no pressure here, only the joy of generosity.
01 — A Glad Response
Cheerful, never coerced.
Generosity begins with grace, not guilt. Because God has been so lavish with us — sparing not even his own Son — we get to respond with open hands. Give as you have decided in your own heart, freely and joyfully. We will never pressure you, rank you, or make you feel that God's love depends on your gift. It never has, and it never will.
Your gifts here go to ordinary, holy work: keeping the lights on and the gospel preached, caring for our church family, stocking the food pantry, and sending the good news of Jesus to the nations. Every dollar is stewarded with care and gratitude.
Each person should do as he has decided in his heart — not reluctantly or out of compulsion, since God loves a cheerful giver.
02 — Ways to Give
Three simple ways.
Give however suits you best — there is no wrong way, and no gift is too small. Each one is received with the same gratitude.

03 — Giving Questions
A few honest answers.
-
Is my gift secure?
Yes. Online gifts are processed through an encrypted, reputable giving partner, and your personal information is never sold or shared. Gifts given in person or by mail are handled by trusted church volunteers under careful oversight.
-
Can I give to missions specifically?
You can. Simply note "missions" with your gift — online, on your check, or on an offering envelope — and it will go directly to support our mission partners and outreach near and far.
-
Do I have to be a member to give?
Not at all. Giving is always a free response of worship, open to anyone who wishes to share in the work — and never a requirement to belong, to visit, or to be welcomed here.
04 — Stewardship & Integrity
Held in trust,
open to all.
Every gift is stewarded prayerfully and transparently. Our finances are overseen by the congregation through her deacons, and a financial report is available to any member who asks. We answer to God first, and to one another.
